The tale of Sherlock Holmes is a timeless classic that has captured the hearts of audiences for generations. From the original stories penned by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to the countless adaptations in film and television, the character of Sherlock Holmes has become a cultural icon. One of the latest iterations of this beloved detective is the CW series, “Sherlock & Daughter.”

In this modern retelling, Holmes, portrayed by the talented David Thewlis, finds himself embroiled in a complex mystery involving a criminal syndicate known as “The Red Thread.” Alongside him is a young American woman named Amelia Rojas, played by Blu Hunt, who believes that Holmes may be her long-lost father. This unique twist adds a layer of diversity to the traditional Holmesian canon, as Amelia is a Native American woman from California. The chemistry between Holmes and Rojas is palpable, offering a fresh and engaging dynamic to the familiar Sherlock Holmes narrative.

“Sherlock & Daughter” also serves as an interesting preview of The CW’s evolving programming. As the network navigates a new phase following changes in ownership, this series stands out as one of the first original dramas created under these new circumstances. Co-produced with Discovery+ in the UK and Ireland, the show represents a shift in storytelling priorities for The CW. With a promising 75 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the potential for a second season could signal the types of stories that The CW is looking to prioritize in the future.

One of the standout aspects of “Sherlock & Daughter” is David Thewlis’ portrayal of Holmes. Known for his roles in the “Harry Potter” series, Thewlis brings a perfect blend of aloofness and intelligence to the character. As Holmes grapples with the possibility of a familial connection to Amelia, Thewlis infuses the character with a newfound sense of vulnerability and emotion. Creator Brendan Foley highlights this evolution, noting Holmes’ typically unemotional nature and his exploration of human emotions in this particular storyline.
